▷ The Basics ▶ AGE: 700+ years old ▶ HEIGHT: 6' ▶ VISUAL: Luka stands a little over 6 foot, with dark blonde hair and blue eyes, and appears to be in his mid-to-late 20s. His hair is usually kept short if he's serving in the military, but otherwise he doesn't bother with it and it tends to grow out messy and shaggy. While he is fairly built, being a soldier, he leans more on the side of lanky than anything. He tends towards wearing simple clothing - dark slacks and button up shirts, unless - again - he's serving in a military respect, and then he'll wear his uniform. Otherwise, he doesn't care much. He has a number of scars, though many have faded with time. However there are a number of them that look newer than most; over his hands and wrists, up his arms, and his back is scarred pretty badly. ▶ AURAL: Luka is soft-spoken, with a low, soft tone of voice. He rarely raises his voice, though he is none to make his tone a bit more stern if it's needed. He also speaks with a German accent. ▶ OLFACTORY: He smells human, but there's something off about it. And in general, if he shifts into an animal, he will smell like that animal . . . but again, it'll be off somehow. Aside from that, he smells like whatever soap he washes with. ▶ DEMEANOUR: Luka is a man of few words, but very respectful to those who deserve it. He's very obviously a soldier in the way he stands and acts; he keeps his back straight, arms at his side or hands folded behind his back. While he's a very serious type, his face is far more expressive than his voice, and it's easy to tell what he's thinking by that, most of the time.

▷ IC Permissions ▶ PHYSICAL AFFECTION: Luka is a distant type, so while he will tolerate it, he'll give you strange looks. ▶ PHYSICAL VIOLENCE: By all means, but he will retaliate if it's an actual fight and not someone just throwing a bunch. He'll also avoid any fights at any costs. ▶ PSYCHIC & PSIONIC INFORMATION: Luka is very, very old. As old as say, the former country of Prussia. He has no defenses against psychics, so everything is fair game. ▶ MAGICAL INFORMATION: Luka is a shapeshifter, and the way it works in his world is that it is a wholly physical change and the magic behind it is not something other shapeshifters are able to sense. But if you're an accomplished wizard/etc you'll be able to sense it. ▶ MEDICAL INFORMATION: Surprisingly healthy for someone over 700 years old. Though judging by the scars he carries, he was, at one point, tortured for a long period of time. ▶ OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: I'll get back to this.

▷ OOC Permissions ▶ BACKTAGGING: Always! ▶ THREADHOPPING: Go for it! ▶ FOURTHWALLING: If you . . . want to . . . ? ▶ OFFENSIVE SUBJECTS & TRIGGERS: None! ▶ ANYTHING ELSE? Luka very rarely shifts in front of people he isn't close to, but all he needs to do to take someone's form is touch them. Also, silver is poisonous! Any scars caused by it will remain no matter what form he takes.
